At Loving by Nature, we put love for our community, our planet, and our little ones at the heart of everything we do. Our carefully curated collection brings together the very best in organic children’s clothes, sustainable toys, and eco-friendly baby essentials — all chosen with care, from our heart to yours.
We proudly stock ethical and sustainable brands such as Little Green Radicals, Pigeon Organics, Sleepy Doe, and Disana, offering timeless, organic cotton and merino wool clothing that’s gentle on skin and kind to the planet.
Discover wooden toys from Grapat and Wooden Story, nursery essentials from Avery Row, and a handpicked selection of children’s books that nurture curiosity and a love for nature. As an independent family-run shop, we believe in slowing down, choosing consciously, and celebrating the simple joys of family life.
Let customers speak for us
from 169 reviewsPerfect birthday card for my daughter. Lots to choose from :)
I bought a few different cards, and they’re all beautiful. Lovely quality and unusual designs. Would recommend
Pretty Everyone likes looking at it. What should we do with it?
Once again delighted with the purchases I made at this little gem of a shop.
I would certainly recommend a visit but don’t forget to allow yourself extra time to look through all the well chosen, delightful stock.

About time Dorchester had a great shop for cool children's clothes
Got this as a birthday present for a 1 year old and she immediately started trying to play with them! The mum was also very happy to join in and both started to build towers with them. Baby also tried to put them in her mouth but they're big and chunky so we weren't worried about choking. A great success!
My daughter loves them and it’s great knowing owing her eyes are being protected. Great product and amazing service from Loving By Nature. 💚
Big and soft with a lovely vibrant nature pattern - for one of my dearest friends who had her baby very early.
We got our reusable nappies through Dorset council. It was so easy and simple to claim them. We absolutely love the beautiful designs. The nappies are great quality and they were made even more special with a hand written personal thank you in the packaging. We cannot wait to use them! I cannot recommend this scheme enough, such a good way of getting people to use reusable nappies
Put on mine and children's cheeks for the bad weather. Even the heel of my foot when it cracked. None scented and non irritant.
Love this shop bought some wellies and checked shirts for my grandchildren in the sale! Fantastic quality and my grandchildren loved them! Great sale offer!
Lovely little shop with a good range of curated items suitable for newborns and small children. will visit again.
Our almost 5 year old granddaughter was totally absorbed by this on Christmas Day! Easy for her to play independently and a great stepping stone to working out her own tunes too.
Soft organic cotton, perfect for a good night’s sleep and I love the ski design, perfect for winter.
Lovely shop, beautiful items and excellent service. Very informative on reusable nappies. Beautiful clothes and books for children.
